Personally I'd like to hire a DB expert who also knows how to drive an agentic coding system to help them accelerate their work. AI tools, used correctly, act as an amplifier of existing knowledge and experience.


As far as I know nobody has really came up with proof that LLMs act as an amplifier of existing knoledge.

It does make people FEEL more productive.


What would a "proof" of that even look like?

There are thousands (probably millions) of us walking around with anecdotal personal evidence at this point.


Some years ago when everybody here gave their anecdotal evidence about how Bitcoin and Blockchain were the future and they used it every day. You were a fool if you did not jump on the bandwagon.

If the personal opinions on this site were true, half of the code in the world would be functional, lisp would be one of the languages most used and Microsoft would have not bougth DropBox.

I really think HN hive minds opinions means nothing. Too much money here to be real.


I'm going to believe my own experience on this one.


I am going to wait until Chat GPT 8 solves quantum physics like the ex ceo of this site has stated.


Good thing there exists no middle ground between solving quantum physics and optimizing a SQL statement.

I hardly remember anyone on HN, a tech audience, saying they used blockchain everyday. Why don't you go find some of that evidence?
